Peeking at Love After the Wedding

[Marriage first, love later + reunion after years apart + secret love comes true + a slow, steady romance] Shen Qingmo waited seven years for Lu Jingchuan to marry her, only to hear that he was joining forces with a wealthy heiress through marriage. On the day they broke up, Lu Jingchuan said casually, “You should have realized long ago that we're from different worlds. Families like ours believe in marrying within our own circles.” Heartbroken, Shen Qingmo went on a blind date arranged by her parents. Her match was Lin Xubai, the neighbor boy she hadn't seen in seven years. He was gentle and polite, yet proposed outright at their second meeting: “If you don't mind, let's get married.” Shen Qingmo thought theirs would be a marriage of convenience, until on their wedding night she discovered The scar on Lin Xubai's left arm was exactly like the one on the man she remembered saving her life! With trembling hands, she opened an old diary in his study. Its yellowed pages were filled with secrets she had never known: “Today she smiled at Lu Jingchuan, but I was the one who saved her back then.” “She mistook me for someone else, but I can't tell her.” “If marriage is what she wants, I'll give it to her, even if her heart belongs to someone else.” Shen Qingmo finally understood that the deepest love in the world is knowing you love someone else and still silently protecting you for ten years, waiting for you to turn around and see the man who has always been behind you.
